CNLP 515 | Jim Burgen and Jesse DeYoung on the Anatomy of Toxic Church Leadership, Church Growth and Identity, and How Leadership Crushes You

In 'Redemptive Leadership: Offering Second Chances as a Value-Added Management Practice,' Joseph J. Bucci delves into the journeys of individuals who have been given a fresh start through a process of redemption and restoration. The book emphasizes how businesses can benefit by providing employment opportunities to these redeemed individuals, allowing them to pursue their gifts and calling. It combines theoretical research with practical examples to illustrate the value-added management practices of redemptive leadership.

In 'Love & Respect,' Dr. Emerson Eggerichs argues that the primary emotional needs for men and women are different: men need respect, while women need love. The book introduces the concepts of the 'Crazy Cycle' and the 'Energizing Cycle' to explain how negative and positive communication patterns can impact a marriage. Eggerichs provides practical tips and exercises to help couples break down communication barriers, handle conflict, and foster a deeper love and respect for each other. The book is based on over three decades of counseling and research, and it aims to help couples achieve a more fulfilling and biblically grounded relationship.
